So perhaps it was a bit justified that the internet was on edge when the superstar recording artist showed up for Game 4 of the series against the Boston Bruins in his hometown of Toronto rocking Maple Leafs gear.

Sadly for Leafs fans, the curse seems to be alive and well. The Bruins staved off the Maple Leafs' late charge, winning 6-4 and sending the series back to Boston tied 2-2. Afterwards, Twitter had plenty of jokes to fire off at Drake's expense.
